When you buy something at a store that does not advertise, you help pay for the pub­ licity of the store that DOES advertise ! The proposition is a perfectly logical one. Advertising enables a merchant to sell more goods in a day. Thus his daily oper­ ating expenses is collected from a large num­ ber of customers— instead of from a few. Assuming that he sells ten times as much merchandise as the non-advertising store sells, he is enabled to greatly under­ sell his slower competitor, and still make a larger aggregate profit. The penalty—the tax—therefore, is paid by the hapless shopper who goes to the non- advertising store; and who, by paying a high­ er price, indirectly “pays for the advertising" that the live merchant does. Assuredly the patron of the advertising merchant does not “pay for his advertising,” for, because of the advertising, such patron saves money on her purchase ! > 4.4
